Description


Media Ukkie Land is a media event/experience (within the museum Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision - cultural heritage) for children aged 4 to 6 and their parents and/or supervisors. It shows, in a playful manner, how media can seduce young children and which temptation techniques are used to get children to watch certain shows. These techniques have the ability to draw the child's attention, influencing their behaviour and their image of reality. Media Ukkie Land does not offer educational solutions and does not judge, but offers some tips for parents/educators. While children play in Media Ukkie Land, parents/educators can learn about the seven temptation techniques of contemporary media and how they influence children's behaviour.
